Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Know we're scared of us, what this might become
Ain't no going back no more, no more
We're in the same bed, cannot lay awake
Let's fill up this space with us
[Verse 2]
Butterfly, yeah, yeah
You make me feel brand new
[Verse 3]
Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin' late
No longer lookin' for somethin'
Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin' late
No longer lookin' for somethin'
[Verse 4]
So you seem to think you're invisible
You're so far from silhouette
You tell on yourself between every word
And leave all this room for me
[Verse 5]
Butterfly, yeah
I miss feelin' for you
[Verse 6]
Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin' late
No longer lookin' for somethin'
Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin' late
No longer lookin' for somethin'
[Verse 7]
You speak in dictionaries while fearing less than all will understand
Virgo moon, I'm so used to your dance
Tongue too swoll to comprehend
I see you duck and dodge at every bend
Afraid to play your card, be forced to show your hand
I hope you take from this that it'll make you no less of a man
To break your walls and simply grab my hand
Love shouldn't be contraband
It shouldn't trample on your confidence
Shouldn't be seen as less than compliments
